Gilchrist South, Nolensville TN
SIX CUSTOM HOMES | ACRE-SCALE LOTS | THE BRENTWOOD LINE | SUNSET ZONE | 37135
The only home that has sold here asked $1,750,000 and took $1,550,000. Six-home enclaves are rare. That does not automatically make them expensive.

Six Homes on One Circle
Gilchrist South is a six-home enclave on Gilchrist South Circle, just inside Nolensville on the Brentwood line in Williamson County, 37135. The homes were custom built in 2017 on lots running from three quarters of an acre to an acre and a quarter.
Six homes means the resale record is very thin, and being precise about that matters more here than in any large subdivision. Two of the six have appeared in the MLS in the past year. One of them sold. Everything below is drawn from those filings and clearly labelled as such.
The location is the durable part. You are minutes from Nolensville’s Old Town corridor and the Publix-anchored Village Green, and inside fifteen minutes of Brentwood’s Maryland Farms. Green Hills is roughly twenty minutes on a clear run.
The One Completed Sale
| Home | Size | Lot | Asked | Sold | Of ask | Days |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 209 Gilchrist South Cir | 5,448 | 0.75 ac | $1,750,000 | $1,550,000 | 88.6% | 124 |
Data from RealTracs MLS, trailing 12 months. “Asked” is the original list price, before any reduction.
That is $284.51 per square foot, and the sale took four months and a $200,000 concession to complete. It is a substantial home, four bedrooms and three and a half baths across a main level and a finished basement, with an in-ground pool and a three-car garage.
A second home in the enclave, 4,136 square feet on 1.25 acres, was offered at $1,575,000 in February and $1,525,000 in April, withdrawn both times. Between the two of them, this is a community where pricing has been tested repeatedly and the market has been selective.
Where That Sits in the Williamson Luxury Market
One sale cannot price a neighborhood. What can is the cohort it belongs to: every Williamson-side sale in this zip code above $1.3 million over the past year.
| Measure | 209 Gilchrist South | Williamson 37135, $1.3M+ |
|---|---|---|
| Sales in the cohort | 1 | 67 |
| Sale price | $1,550,000 | $1,549,900 median |
| Price per square foot | $284.51 | $347.59 median |
| Square footage | 5,448 | 4,533 median |
| Percent of original ask | 88.6% | 98.1% median |
| Days to contract | 124 | 51 median |
Data from RealTracs MLS, trailing 12 months, Williamson County portion of zip 37135.
Read those two columns together and the picture is clear. 209 Gilchrist landed almost exactly on the cohort median, within a hundred dollars of it. But it got there by being 915 square feet larger than the typical home in that tier, and at $63 a foot less, which is about eighteen percent below.
The sale-to-ask figure is the part worth dwelling on. Across the whole Williamson side of this zip code, only 24 of 325 sales closed below 90 percent of their opening price. In the million-three-and-up tier, only four of sixty-seven did. Gilchrist South’s one completed sale is in that small group.
So the honest reading is not that a six-home enclave commands a premium. It is that this is a lot of house for the money, and it has taken patience and price flexibility to trade. For a buyer, that is an opportunity. For a seller, it is the single most important thing to understand before setting a number.
Market Data

| Closed sales, past 12 months | One, at $1,550,000 |
| Price per square foot | $284.51 on that sale |
| Square footage, the two homes on record | 4,136 and 5,448 |

| Homeowners association | $400 a quarter, $1,600 a year |
| Dues cover | Grounds maintenance for common areas |
| Shared amenities | None recorded beyond underground utilities |
| Annual property tax | $4,784 and $5,275 |
| Water and wastewater | City water and public sewer, not septic |
| County | Williamson |
Data from RealTracs MLS, all Gilchrist South filings over the trailing 12 months. Figures describe the two of six homes that have MLS records; they are not a six-home range.
One detail worth flagging because acre-lot buyers often assume otherwise: these homes are on city water and public sewer, not septic. On lots this size that is unusual, and it removes a set of inspection questions that acreage properties normally carry.

The Homes
The two homes with MLS records are 4,136 and 5,448 square feet, four and five bedrooms, both with three-car garages, both built in 2017. One is all brick with hardboard; the other is fiber cement. Both are modern farmhouse in character.
209 Gilchrist South Circle was designed and built by Ridgemont Homes, and its listing detail is unusually specific about materials: kiln-dried hickory floors sourced from an Amish farm in Etheridge, Tennessee, and reclaimed Nolensville cabin wood used for the powder-room wash stand, the kitchen island posts and the fireplace mantle. The plan runs to a formal dining room, a great room, a hearth room with a see-through fireplace into a study, a basement rec room, a hobby studio and about 330 square feet of basement storage.
That is one home of six. The record does not establish who built the other five, so treat any broader builder claim about this enclave as something to verify rather than assume.
Amenities
There are none in the conventional sense, and the community amenity record confirms it: no clubhouse, no community pool, no playground. Underground utilities is the only shared feature recorded.
What the dues buy is grounds maintenance for the common areas, at $400 a quarter. What the community offers instead of shared facilities is lot size and quiet: three quarters of an acre to an acre and a quarter, with wooded lot lines on several parcels. One of the two homes on record has its own in-ground pool.
If you are moving from a community with a pool, a clubhouse and a calendar of events, this is a deliberate trade rather than an oversight. Nolensville’s town parks and greenway are nearby, and Brentwood’s park system is inside fifteen minutes.
Schools
| Level | Recorded on all five filings |
|---|---|
| Elementary | Sunset Elementary |
| Middle | Sunset Middle |
| High | Nolensville High |
Data from RealTracs MLS, school fields as recorded, unanimous across all five filings. Williamson County Schools sets and adjusts these boundaries; confirm the current assignment for a specific address with the district.
This is the Sunset zone under Williamson County Schools, unanimous across every filing. Worth confirming per address, since 37135 spans three counties and three districts and the assignment follows the county rather than the mailing address.
Why Work with Nashville Home Guru?
Six homes. One completed sale. A per-foot price eighteen percent under the tier it competes in, and a sale-to-ask figure that only four of sixty-seven comparable Williamson sales matched. There is no way to price a home here from the neighborhood alone, and no way to price it well without the cohort.
Patrick Higgins is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent and founder of Nashville Home Guru at Compass, with more than 1,100 transactions and over $500 million in career sales across Middle Tennessee. With 100+ Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews behind that record, what clients describe is being shown the filings rather than a summary of them.
Across Nolensville, Compass and Parks agents were involved in roughly one in three closed sales. In a six-home enclave that number matters less than knowing when one of the six is thinking about moving, which is a relationship question rather than a market-share question.
For sellers here the evidence is unusually direct. The one home that sold opened at $1,750,000 and closed at $1,550,000 after 124 days. A second opened at $1,575,000 and again at $1,525,000 without trading. In a community where every sale sets the comparable for the next one, testing the number privately before the public clock starts is worth more than usual. That is what the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy is built to do. Homes pre-marketed through Private Exclusive and Coming Soon sell for 2.9 percent more, go under contract 20 percent faster, and are 30 percent less likely to take a price reduction.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many homes are in Gilchrist South?
Six, all custom built in 2017 on Gilchrist South Circle. It is an enclave rather than a subdivision, and the listing record for the community independently describes it the same way.
What have homes in Gilchrist South sold for?
One home has sold in the past twelve months: 209 Gilchrist South Circle, 5,448 square feet on three quarters of an acre, which closed at $1,550,000. It was originally offered at $1,750,000 and took 124 days, so the sale price and the asking price were $200,000 apart.
Is Gilchrist South expensive compared to other Williamson County homes?
By total price it sits at the luxury tier median. By price per square foot it sits well below it. The one completed sale closed at $284.51 per foot against a $347.59 median for Williamson-side 37135 homes above $1.3 million, so it delivered roughly 900 more square feet than the typical home in that tier at about eighteen percent less per foot.
How quickly do homes sell in Gilchrist South?
Slowly, on the evidence available. The one completed sale took 124 days against a 51-day median for comparable Williamson County luxury homes, and closed at 88.6 percent of its original asking price when only four of sixty-seven homes in that tier closed below 90 percent. A second home in the enclave was offered twice in 2026, at $1,575,000 and then $1,525,000, and withdrawn both times.
Who built the homes in Gilchrist South?
209 Gilchrist South Circle was designed and built by Ridgemont Homes, a custom builder, and its listing describes materials including kiln-dried hickory flooring from an Amish farm in Etheridge, Tennessee and reclaimed Nolensville cabin wood used in the powder room, kitchen island and fireplace mantle. The record does not establish who built the other five homes.
What are the HOA fees in Gilchrist South?
$400 a quarter, or $1,600 a year. The dues cover grounds maintenance for the common areas. There is no community pool or clubhouse to fund, which is why the figure stays where it does for a community at this price point.
Does Gilchrist South have a pool or clubhouse?
No. The community amenity record shows no clubhouse, no community pool and no playground; underground utilities is the only shared feature recorded. One of the two homes with MLS records has its own private in-ground pool.
How big are the lots?
The two homes on record sit on 0.75 and 1.25 acres. That is well above what most Nolensville communities of this vintage offer, and it is the community’s clearest differentiator. Several parcels have wooded lot lines.
What schools serve Gilchrist South?
Sunset Elementary, Sunset Middle and Nolensville High, unanimous across every filing, under Williamson County Schools. The 37135 zip code spans Williamson, Davidson and Rutherford counties and the school district follows the county rather than the mailing address, so confirm the assignment for a specific address with the district.
Are these homes on septic?
No. Every filing records city water and public sewer. On acre-scale lots that is unusual and worth knowing, because it removes the septic permit and drain-field questions that acreage properties in this area normally carry.
Is Gilchrist South a good fit if I want acreage and privacy near Brentwood?
On the record it fits that brief closely: three quarters of an acre to an acre and a quarter, six homes total, custom 2017 construction, city water and sewer, and the Sunset school zone, all inside the Williamson County line and minutes from Brentwood. The tradeoffs are specific. There are no shared amenities, resale is extremely thin at one sale a year, and the evidence so far says homes here take time and price flexibility to trade.
How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Gilchrist South?
By pricing against the cohort rather than the enclave, because six homes cannot produce a usable comparable set on their own. That means building the Williamson-side 37135 luxury group, checking where a Gilchrist home sits on price per foot rather than total price, and working from the original asking price rather than the reduced one. Patrick, a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent with more than 1,100 transactions, then prices for the pace this community has actually shown rather than the pace a seller hopes for.
What is my Gilchrist South home worth in today’s market?
An automated estimate cannot do much here. There is one comparable sale in the community, it closed $200,000 below its asking price, and the enclave’s homes vary by more than 1,300 square feet and half an acre between the two on record. Any model will either anchor to that single discounted sale or reach outside the community entirely. Start with an instant estimate, then call Patrick at 615-682-1718 for an analysis built on the 67-home Williamson luxury cohort.
